About this listen

In this emotional and revealing episode, Raj Kaul sits down with Danish Veer, the youngest son of Punjabi music icon Ustad Sabar Koti, to share a powerful story of identity, loss, resilience, and finding his voice as an artist.

Danish Veer opens up about:

  • Being raised by his aunt in Amritsar and growing up away from his father

  • Seeing Sabar Koti more as a legendary artist than a parent

  • Learning tabla in a gurdwara and developing his craft through self-guided training

  • Reconnecting with music after his father’s passing

  • Moving to Canada and adapting to a completely new culture

  • The viral reel that brought him into the spotlight

  • His debut album The Origin blending Punjabi and Bollywood influences

  • What musical excellence truly means to him

A raw, inspiring, and heartfelt episode that shines a light on the person behind the legacy — not just Sabar Koti’s son, but Danish Veer, the artist.
